Chapter 799: Are You Imagining Something Awful?
Chapter 799: Are You Imagining Something Awful?
"Come to me. Before either of their Heroic Spirits discover us, we must leave this place."
Medea had just been summoned, indicating that the pair who set up the Dispel Barrier were not targeting them.
As a Divine Era Magician, Medea could easily perform even the most challenging teleportation spells, which was why she signaled to Yecheng to come to her side so she could cast a spell to transport them both away from this dangerous place.
However, instead of responding to Medea's call, Yecheng stood in place, deep in thought, and said, "Medea, I know of your legend.
When you fled with Jason, you abandoned your homeland, didn't you...?"
Hearing Yecheng mention her legend, Medea's expression immediately turned sour.
Her past and painful memories were undoubtedly one of Medea's most sensitive topics, and Yecheng's bringing it up now undoubtedly angered her!
If it weren't for the good impression Yecheng had given her previously, Medea might have attacked him right then and there.
"So what if I did? Are you implying that you're Jason?"
Seeing Medea's expression filled with hatred, Yecheng slightly curled his lips and said, "I have no desire to be like Jason, a coward who doesn't know gratitude.
Despite having a beautiful lover willing to give everything for him, he ultimately abandoned his wife for a ridiculous reason.
If he were a true hero, he would have stepped up during difficult times instead of letting the woman who deeply loved him silently bear it all.
Medea, that memory must be something you detest, yet it's also something you can't forget, isn't it?"
As Yecheng spoke, the anger on Medea's face gradually faded, especially when he criticized Jason, whom she despised. Medea was even moved to believe that Yecheng was the only one who truly understood her.
Yes, she had done so much for Jason, yet she ended up being labeled a 'witch,' while he remained a hero in history.
She was the one who was abandoned, yet she became the so-called 'Betrayal Witch,' which was utterly ridiculous.
Yecheng understood her so well, and he was the first person willing to do so much for her. Now, Medea was even more reluctant to let Yecheng die here.
Just as she was about to pull him away without a word and use her space teleportation spell to take them both to safety, Yecheng's figure changed within a white mist, altering his appearance and clothing.
"From this moment on, I am Caster Mahad, a pharaoh priest from ancient Egypt three thousand years ago, skilled in powerful Dark Magic.
And Medea, you are my Master. To avoid suspicion, you might want to give yourself a more modern name."
Medea was stunned as she watched Yecheng don a set of magical armor and wield a jet-black staff as long as a spear, spinning it like a lance.
Seeing that Medea had been holding his hand, Yecheng seemed to remember something important and extended his hand to place it on her wrist.
With a surge of astonishing mana, Medea was astonished to find three Command Spells appearing on her arm! Of course, she could sense that these sudden Command Spells were fake and held no power to command Heroic Spirits.
With her extensive knowledge of magecraft, Medea could easily analyze the effects of these three fake Command Spells.
These fake Command Spells were not just a simple disguise; they also contained an astonishing amount of magical power.
In other words, if she were to run out of mana during a battle or if her Master was not by her side, she could replenish her magic by using just one of these Command Spells! Through these three fake Command Spells, Medea also gained a clearer understanding of Night City's true capabilities.
Her cheap Master seemed to possess not only excellent Magic Circuits but also remarkable magical talent.
These seemingly simple fake Command Spells contained techniques that were not only impressive in the modern magecraft world but also in the Mythic Era where she lived.
Looking at the fake Command Spells in her hand and then at Night City, who was cosplaying as a Dark Mage (from Yu-Gi-Oh!), Medea's heart fluttered.
It was laughable; she, who had been betrayed multiple times, thought she would never easily trust others again, especially handsome men.
But in the short time since her summoning, her Master, Night City, had won her over with his actions.
'Shouldn't a man protect a woman by stepping forward? If Jason truly loved her, why would he leave her to face everything alone?'
In the end, their relationship was just a curse from the goddess.
Night City, in an attempt to help her forget that memory, now wanted to bring her into Jason's past, to fight Heroic Spirits as a human. Undoubtedly, this moved Medea deeply.
"Night City, I understand your intentions, but we don't need to compete with them right now.
Rest assured, I will definitely win the Holy Grail for you, no matter what happens!"
Hearing Medea's words, Night City was stunned. He couldn't understand why the witch from the Mythic Era had such unpredictable emotions.
Although women were often fickle, the contrast in Medea's behavior was too extreme...
And when did she say she wanted the Holy Grail? From the beginning, he had made it clear that he was here to experience the joy of fighting Heroic Spirits, which meant he was purely here for fun.
Now, he had even decided on his identity, cosplaying as a Dark Mage to battle other Heroic Spirits. Just as the show was about to begin, Medea was holding him back.
"No, we must fight this battle. Otherwise, everything I've done will be meaningless."
Medea's heart fluttered (///▽///). To help her completely overcome her past nightmares, he was willing to fight other Heroic Spirits!
It must be said that girls in love have Ex-level imagination. Although Medea was already married, her heart was still that of a girl who loved cosplay.
Seeing Medea, who had previously been fierce and cold, now blushing with an unknown fantasy, Night City couldn't help but feel speechless.
Why was she blushing like a teapot?!
To avoid further entanglement with Medea, Night City, feeling she was a nuisance, quickly unleashed a burst of mana, shattering the ceiling of the haunted house, and then rushed out.
